Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Secret Lives Indeed
A book entitled "The Secret Life of Cows" might at first be one you feel might be best left out of view on your bookshelf, lest curious visitors start to form strange views of your private interests.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Brilliant
An absolutely brillant book. Having worked with cattle and knew them as individuals it was interesting to read someone elses views on cattle, and how left to their own devices are perfectly capable of looking after themselves (even better than us!) Highly amusing and well worth reading



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Chew the cud
This book is truly beautiful and is written with great affection and respect. A real insight into living with cows on a daily basis, getting to know them and how they react when allowed to live freely and make their own choices. Certainly makes you think about the issues surrounding intense farming and the effect this is having on these intelligent, wonderful creatures. Also includes sections on sheep, hens and pigs. If you love cows, you've probably been looking for this book for some time.
